Nice app but needs more refinement
My biggest gripe is the annoying alerts that cannot be dismissed saying my firewall is off, which it isn’t and they cannot be removed or cleared until I went to 4Shadow’s Preferences and changed it from “Default Apple Firewall” to “Apple Firewall”. I‘m not sure what the differences are but after I removed the incorrcet warnings I set it back to “Default Apple Firewall” which did not remove the warning after a reboot. Switched to “Apple Firewall” in 4Shadow’s preferences pane and again, on reboot the warning cannot be cleared unless I continue to annoyingly open 4Shadow’s preferences.
I had asked a security expert what his thoughts were on 4Shadow: “...the MIM protection is great defending against a 2000 era Arp attack…but in no way protects your traffic from WIFI eavesdroppers.” If this is true then I’m sure near future updates to 4Shadow will not only improve protection for the user but performance and squash nitpicky bugs.
